....is that icon under my name over there on the left.

I fooled around and changed it the other day. Thast's a shot I took and cropped. I'm tired of my old one. This one is fun, even if it's NOT knife related. It's testosterone/gadget/brute force related, I guess. (If you know anything about race motorcycles, you wil respect the 9-time world championship Ducati's winning World Superbike out of the last 12 years. (Ducati Corse: Ducati Racing) THAT'S dominance! )

That's all. I'll probably change it again soon as I have the desire.

Ducati

Coop:
Never owned or road a Ducati. Ive owned BMW and Harley. But I am familiar with the distinctive sound one makes. I recall a race in Laconia New Hampshire where a Ducati excelled. I can still hear that Ducati coming around the track. The sound stood out over every other bike in the race... and not just because he was out in front of everybody else.

Nice Avatar. Too bad you can't put sound with it.

Coop-

There you go...an avatar with sound. Now you just need to figure out how to make it "hot"...

Well, I've seem the Ducati in races and always noticed the interesting front headlights. A couple of days ago, early in the morning (still dark) I thought I saw an odd set of lights heading towards me and I confirmed this morning that someone near my office has a regular consumer one (if you can call something of that reputation regular)

All though I'm more of a custom chopper person myself, I must say...NICE!!!
